Verified profile

The exhibition Archeoplastic: the incorruptible style welcomes a selection from the "Museum of ancient waste" of the "Archeoplastic" project and combines plastic material, aesthetic form, and time to address the problem of the insidious durability of plastic objects. The exhibited objects were collected on Italian beaches and the oldest ones date back to the 1960s: like a sort of carbon 14 dating - where the only (or almost only) temporal indicator becomes the design - visitors will be able to closely observe almost archaeological objects, witnesses of the insidious effects of pollution. Discovering the age of the objects and their history will lead to the tangible and unexpected realization of how long the half-life of plastic is and will force the visitor to an obligatory awareness, a different way to verify their knowledge on waste, micro and macro plastics, and to generate responsible behaviors. The exhibition is realized in collaboration with Archeoplastic and the 3rd A Classico class of the Liceo G. M. Dettori in Tempio, which curated the setup, as part of the project "Organica EDU: - knowledge, skills, and competences between art and environment in the Limbara Park" supported by the Sardegna Foundation.
